A series of 2,3-dihydro-5-benzofuranamines (5-aminocoumarans) were developed for the treatment of traumatic and ischemic central nervous system (CNS) injury. Compounds within this class were extremely effective inhibitors of lipid peroxidation in vitro and antagonized excitatory behavior coupled with peroxidative injury
